ALGECIRAS IS WAITING FOR YOU
Algeciras, city open to the sea and at the same time sheltered by the mountain, is the great unknown of El Campo de Gibraltar. Traditionally a city of passage, it now deserves to stop by itself and know its corners. Do not miss its white sandy beaches (El Rinconcillo and Getares), the remains of the Merini walls or the factories of Roman saltines, its lively centre with the Plaza Alta, the María Cristina park, the Castizo neighbourhood of San Isidro or the Ingeniero Torroja market, etc.
